Its just more work on the receiving end of each function to unpack the parameterArray.
Indeed, there's no real need for the *programmer* to worry about unpacking the array - as far as a simple function is concerned, the variables can just be used as ever. PHP may have to deal with it differently, but from a coders point of view, it's:
function foo($a, $b, $c) { doMagicStuffWith $b; }
versus
function bar($params) { doMagicStuffWith $params['b']; }
